Shamatha is the practice of calming the mind and its ‘formations’. This is done by practicing single-pointed meditation most commonly through mindfulness of breathing. Shamatha is the basis of all Buddhist practice. The process of undoing bewilderment is based on stabilizing and strengthening our mind.
